Probably cheaper than opiates. Not sure about safer though.

methinks we would probably like it lots and it would get very expensive.

chartering boats isn't nearly as expensive as owning them, especially if you're not stuck with highest season. North-east England isn't the place to start though. Head west to the Clyde.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I spent around 1/7th of the total year or every 3rd day, on average between start December to start of May, skiing and spent about 1/6th of my net income for 2009/2010 season. This included a new pair of skis but no other kit. I think this is a bargain

yes, but that's best done on the Clyde too. Or at least, if you were thinking of big boats where you can get inside out of the rain and make a cup of tea. If it's dinghies, anywhere there's a pond. I learnt to sail cruisers on the Clyde, with the Clyde Offshore Sailing Centre (grand name, but the Clyde's not exactly offshore, that's why it's such a great place to learn - lovely scenery, big winds, small waves because of the Mull of Kintyre). That was many years ago, don't know if they still exist.

Location: SmoggielandPeter S, a convincing argument...only thing being we'd probably have to lay out for a 4x4 to get over to Yadd Moss .... and get some skis.... [was very tempting though...], but the DH would get the perverse joy he has of changing into his gear in the car park

Thats what winter tyres and a shovel are for! There aren't many days that I carn't get to YM one way or another in my old Peugeot
